    Would it be worth mentioning how an aggressive angle eliminates detailing next to the frame?
    I personaly move up into the corner come halfway across the glass drop down and come back up the other side then drop down the remaining sides then tackle my mountain. this alows an acute angle between the channel and frame on all instances of the frame. Great video 👍👍😁🏆

    Straight pulls will result in no streaks. Fanning is faster but will leave squeegee steaks which won't show up on overcast day but sun shining through you will see chatter marks

      You might want to try adding a wetting agent that slows down drying like EBC Glide - windowcleaner.com/products/ebc-glide or Winsol Super Slip Wetting Agent - windowcleaner.com/products/winsol-super-slip-wetting-agent

    Hey Steve O the streaking left behind sometimes I see a dull wide ban rather than a line. Is this caused by going over dry areas or lack of pressure? Or ? I tend to catch it later and wipe them with a dry surgical towel. I’m pretty green when it comes to window cleaning. Always love your videos

    When I'm done with a window I have some soap and bubbles at the very edges of the glass. On some windows it's almost like it's slightly underneath the plastic frame. Should I wipe a line with a towel to dry those or leave them alone and will they disappear when they dry?

    Hello, I need some urgent help.
    I used my window pole to experiment doing cut in straight pulls on my personal window.
    I've been using HG Window Cleaner 500ml and I thought this might be the issue as to why my window cleaning isn't too good so when I tried out cut in straight pulls on my window I switched to washing up liquid.
    The washing up liquid made my window look so clean, after I had to scrub and squeegee with my pole a few time, but upon further inspection I saw dry rain marks on my window. What can I do to get rid of these dry rain marks and offer a better service to my customers?
    Many thanks.

And as for sun drying the glass then you are two slow on wetting up and blading off . And best blade is 16 inch on all pains witch is standard size for sale if you can not use that blade then it’s skrim job . Ps I’ve been doing windows for 47 years
